Jugg,

One of my few, brief moments of clarity.

I wonder how the Cell Pearl compares to the Gravity Shift.  My guess is that they roll similar. I can not imagine the Cell Pearl having more backend.  

I can use my Gravity Shift for all three games during our 5 men league, on a modified THS, with more oil outside of 5 then normal you can miss right. Just have to be careful to stay firm because of over an under on fresh shot like most pearls I have thrown. Is the Cell Pearl about the same?

Nope dont roll the same in box finish, I have both but let me tell you the Cell pearl at 2k is a flipping outstanding ball. I went with the CP game 1 and right to the AZO Pure Tactics games 2 and 3.

Gravity shift is different than the CP, not huge differences enough to warrant having each ball. I dulled my CP to 2k no polish, now it picks up and handles oil like a champ before it was somewhat allergic to oil.

i have 2 cell pearls also...one is 5x3 with pin up, it handles oil nicely....i have the other at 6x5 pin up at 2000 with beans on it and it is my fav, i kill my house with this ball playing deep inside...they compliment each other very well for me...i ave 233 this past weekend in a doubles tourney with the 5x3 CP on wood lanes...love them both and would highly recommend this ball for anyone..

To me, I think roto would have been better served releasing a hybrid cell at 4000 grit letting it push down the lane have more bite in the backs and avoided the pearl thing all together, but thats just me.  I would take the pearl if you gave it to me, but I'd take the original at 4000 first and make it compliment my OOB cell, smoooooooooth strong, predictable, what else do you want?

Starbucks...funny.

Most of the shops out here, in Starbucks land, are not seeing the response from the pearl that there was for the solid. It is also a little allergic to oil. There are other pearls that out perform it also.

Glad you are selling them, we can send ours to you.

There isn't a pearl on the market that handles oil and carrydown better than the Cell Pearl.  How about you drilling one and seeing what it can do?

I do not need to drill a ball to see what it does. Thanks for offering though.

Selling in Vegas, i have seen 6 on ball returns in the last two weeks alone. Yes it is allergic to oil and carrydown in box also, not the worst I have seen but still a great ball.

While I like mine, to say it handles oil better than any other pearl is not true from what I see. To me it is just the Total NV all over again. Nice length decent backend good carry. But I have thrown a lot of stronger pearls.
